Second Dad
Mori Ougai chuckled and shook his head. Did Nakahara Chuuya think he hadn't investigated?
As soon as he discovered Xiao Luo and how she appeared, Mori Ougai became extremely vigilant and ordered people to investigate.
Unfortunately, there was nothing there.
However, if they have Dazai, it wouldn't be difficult for them to find a way to target the Mafia and prevent them from investigating for a while.
Returning to his senses, Mori Ougai smiled at the young man before him: "Someone else will handle this. I've already arranged for a paternity test to be done for you."
Why not cultivate a relationship with Xiao Luo first?
Nakahara Chuuya had no intention of objecting and respectfully accepted the order.
Putting aside the fact that this was the leader's order, just looking at the little girl's appearance, even if they weren't father and daughter as the children claimed, there must be some connection between them.
Is the contact related to his family...?
He only let Nakahara Chuuya and Koro go, and Mori Ougai, under the pretext of learning some things, persuaded Verlaine and Yumeno Kyusaku, who had been in contact with Koro, to stay.
The little girl tilted her head back, her schoolbag on her back, and stared intently at Chuuya Nakahara.
His eyes were filled with expectation, yet he hesitated to speak.
"Watch where you're going!" Just as they were about to crash into the elevator, Chuuya Nakahara had no choice but to reach out and grab the child's backpack strap. The young man clicked his tongue awkwardly. Why is she staring at me like that?
Thinking this way, Zhong asked the question.
Why are you staring at me?
“…Um, Dad…” The little girl fidgeted with the shoulder strap of her backpack.
When Chuuya heard Xiaoluo call him that, he felt awkward and strange, but he just frowned and didn't interrupt.
Anyway, once the test results are out, she'll know what's going on.
"Go ahead," Chuuya Nakahara said, softening his tone.
"Dad, did you go to elementary school?" The little girl's eyes sparkled. She was determined not to ask if her dad had gone to elementary school.
Chuuya Nakahara was taken aback by the question from Koro, and after a moment of surprise, he calmly replied, "No."
He thought the child wanted to know about his past, that he used to live in Radium Street, which was known as a slum, and that he was an undocumented person, so how could he have gone to school?
Chuuya Nakahara lowered his eyes with a complicated expression and spoke calmly.
No! The little girl, whose education level was only kindergarten, clenched her fists excitedly. Her father hadn't gone to primary school, which meant that her father, like her, only had a kindergarten education, or...
"Dad, did you ever go to kindergarten?" the little girl asked, tilting her head up curiously.
Why are you still asking about school? Although Chuuya Nakahara was puzzled, he still answered, "No."
Then he saw the little girl proudly puff out her chest, her eyes full of confidence, and she exclaimed, "Dad! Xiao Luo went to kindergarten!"
...
I always feel looked down upon because of my educational background.
Little Luo happily put down her schoolbag, her eyes crinkling with laughter. She reached into her schoolbag with her short little hands and rummaged around for a while before pulling out a math workbook.
“Daddy, be good,” the little girl said earnestly, “We must study hard and try to get into kindergarten. You must know that hard work doesn’t guarantee success, but not working hard guarantees failure.”
This math workbook is now yours.
As Chuuya Nakahara stood there bewildered, holding his math workbook, the little boy thoughtfully flipped to the pages he needed to work on, saying, "Dad, these, these, and these, you have to finish writing them all!"
Chuuya Nakahara fell into deep thought; he had noticed the little girl's schoolbag from the very beginning.
He had considered what might be inside and had also received a mission from the leader to check the items Xiao Luo was carrying.
I never imagined that the little girl would specifically pull out a math homework book for him to do.
Looking at Koro's name above, Nakahara Chuu couldn't help but fall silent.
"Xiao Luo," the young man said calmly, "is this your homework?"
Little girl: ……
The little boy blinked obediently and hugged Nakahara Chuuya's leg, pretending not to hear.
The little girl was lifted up by Chuuya Nakahara, and the young man rummaged through the girl's schoolbag as he walked out of the elevator.
The backpack was empty, containing only a math book and some homework assignments, but nothing that Chuuya Nakahara or Ougai Mori wanted to see.
Is this little guy in school?
Chuuya Nakahara felt somewhat relieved. He didn't go to school not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't live in Radium Street back then.
"Let's write it in my office!" he said with satisfaction.
The child who had been pretending to be dead suddenly started squealing and crying. Xiao Luo said sadly, "Dad, no! This is Xiao Luo's homework for you. Xiao Luo's dad never even went to kindergarten, it will make Xiao Luo very embarrassed."
"As long as Dad can write these, he'll definitely get into kindergarten and bring honor to the family."
Nakahara Chuuya: ...
That's too low a standard for bringing glory to one's ancestors.
but……,
After leaving the child on the sofa in his office, Chuuya Nakahara lowered his eyes and pondered, wondering if she had some strange impression of him.
Without thinking too much, Chuuya Nakahara arranged the children and earnestly instructed them, "Xiao Luo, write carefully first. If you don't understand something, you can ask me."
The little girl looked at her homework with a pained expression, silently moved her math homework aside, and took out her English homework from her bag.
"That belongs to Daddy. Xiao Luo is a good girl. Good girls don't fight with their daddy for things."
Xiao Luo, please write this.
Chuuya Nakahara: ...So he's a kid who excels in only one subject.
Okay, I can do my moral education homework first.
Thinking this, Chuuya Nakahara glanced at the child's math workbook... four words...
It was a terrible sight.
Xiaohong has five apples, and Xiaoming has three. He ate one apple. How many apples do they have in total?
The child below answered: Six.
Chuuya Nakahara couldn't hold back any longer and leaned close to Xiao Luo, "Look at this question, 5 + 3 - 1, why did you write six out of seven apples?"
The little girl was deep in thought while looking at her homework when she heard her father's words. She turned her head and obediently replied, "Because Xiao Luo was hungry at the time, and Xiao Luo wanted to eat one too."
...
What the hell? Little Luo is hungry? If you can eat it, then eat it.
“No,” Chuuya Nakahara tried to explain to the little girl.
But the child, with a flourish of his pen, raised his round chin and said domineeringly, "Dad, you need to know who I am!"
Little Luo went to kindergarten!
Damn! I knew I wasn't wrong! This brat is looking down on his own education!
